Russian military lab unveils prototype of Star Wars-like combat suit

A major hi-tech Russian military research center has unveiled what appears to be a prototype of a next-generation combat suit. The stunning gear, resembling Star Wars outfits, will be worn by Russian soldiers on future battlefields.

The prototype features a helmet covering the soldier’s face and cutting-edge body armor.

The next-generation combat gear also includes a powered exoskeleton to help increase performance and stamina while fighting.

Unless that suit has AC I don’t think it would hold up in Florida heat. No, it’s 96 feels like 104 and the humity is rising to 80%. Plus swamp mud I think would be the end. The US has had a suit like that for years, the same company that makes the space suits.
